Pointless. Options

[AngryBaby]

yeah so i was surfin the net, and i found this other forum.

Click

notice if you look you scroll down, you'll see a sub forum called "pointless: if your looking for intelligent coversation,debate,or relationship advice...dont come here "

this is a pretty successful forum too.
and i was thinking, "HEY! maybe cb should take a route like this"

what do you guys think about this? do you think it'd be a good idea? YEAH?


edit// and dont give that sandbox crap

everything on sandbox has to be a game.

the topics have to be games.

a pointless thread wouldnt have to be.

the things that get closed in lounge, still get alot of posts. those are the kind of entertaining, yet "pointless" topics that could be in the forum.

no it isnt. if he had introduced it in a different way, by telling the mods, it would have worked. which you know perfectly well is what i meant. and NO ONE can PHYSICALLY stop peopl emaking topics. but it IS better now that they are close upon creation.

and NO, it isnt. the pointelss forum would be better because the spam would be detracting from anything. the problem people have with the lounge being spammed isnt the fact that th espam exists, but that it makes everything else impossible to find.

yes nicki. one forum DOES automatically translate to you avoiding half the forums. stop being melodramatic instead of making a real point.

Yes, but he didn't. I know that's what you meant, but that isn't how he proposed it. That particular hypothetical sitatuion is not all that relevant, though. The fact remains that it didn't work, and it just left another mess to clean up. No shit people can't be stopped from making stupid topics.

That's why there's the sandbox!!! There are places to spam and say anything useless you want. Does that contain anything? Not really. What exactly does it accomplish to have part of the community set off from the rest?

Just because my point doesn't happen to be the same as yours for once doesn't mean I didn't make one. I'll hyperbolize if I want. You still know what I mean. I still don't think this will really help very much.

Anyway, I'm not arguing with you anymore. It will get tiresome, and it tends to annoy me a great lot more than arguing with other people.
